Termite Treatment & Protection

Termite Removal & Management

Termite treatments change in terms of their aims and application, each with their own benefits, differences and limitations. There are two major termite management strategies; trying to eradicate the termite colony through baiting, and chemical treatments which aim to make a barrier in between the termites and the structure to be protected.

Chemical Treatment Options

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites as they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately however, if there’s a break in the chemical application, either due to being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, termites can recognise these gaps and gain ingress.

Bifenthrin is a commonly used chemical repellent, having a residual lifespan of up to 5 years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not detected by termites, and therefore the termites don’t stay away from exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the termites will soon die, and can also transfer the chemical on to other members of the colony, thus causing a compounding effect.

Because termites are not able to identify these non repellents, they see no distinction between areas which are treated and people which are not, so there is likely to be reduced ingress through gaps.

The most often used non repellent option is Fipronilthat features a residual life of up to eight years after treatment.

Various Termite Baiting Systems

By using an Above Ground System, termites can be exterminated from a building by positioning bait stations at the site of termite activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix instead of the timber they were eating. This soon kills the termites that ingest the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed the bait to fellow nest members.

In this way, the entire termite nest will be eliminated, even though you don’t know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In-Ground Systems are employed in a similar way, but they are frequently placed around the property to provide an early warning system for signs of a potential termite infestation. These systems are especially useful when the design of the structure may prevent effective perimeter barriers being created, as they can intercept termites before they breach the boundary.
